For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
C course inspires new teaching examples

If you're reading this article as one of a series in my blog, looking for amusing anecdotes, and news of Melksham, you may be getting a bit concerned at the long series of articles on C and C++. This week, I was at meetings at Well House Manor on Tuesday evening, the divisional police HQ on Wednesday evening, the Town Hall on Thursday evening, and at Longleat House on Friday. And I'll have some elements from those to tell you about within my next posts.

But the week just gone - Sunday through Thursday - was a C and C++ course on which the delegate inspired me to write a whole lot of code in front of them, and I have taken the opportunity of this blog to present these examples as short articles - "tips and techniques" - here. I know that if I had left them, I would probably have not got back to them as I move on to MySQL next week and to Ruby for each of the following two weeks. You won't find these particular weeks on our public course schedule as the first is a private course at our training centre and the second is a private course on a customer site. The next public course in Ruby (as I write) is a couple of months off - see [here] for an overview of our two public ruby courses - one for programmers converting from other languages, and one for newcomers to programming; the dates on that page update automatically, so even when this becomes an old article, you will still get current dates!

I'm winding towards the conclusion of my posts on C and C++ for the week - offering you, from Sunday or Monday, a simple practical program that cen help newcomers get started ... it prompts the user for inputs, from which it calculates and prints out some results. It then looks at the results of those calculations and prints a conclusion, using conditional code. I won't make all the comments on this blog as they're there (perhaps to excess in this case) in the code which is [here].
